We propose using the inner-distance between landmark points to build shape descriptors. The inner-distance is defined as the length of the shortest path between landmark points wi...
Image segmentation is defined as partitioning an image into non-overlapping regions based on the intensity or texture. The active contour methods provide an effective way for segm...
We address the image denoising problem, where zeromean white and homogeneous Gaussian additive noise should be removed from a given image. The approach taken is based on sparse an...
Semantic video indexing is the first step towards automatic video retrieval and personalization. We propose a data-driven stochastic modeling approach to perform both video segmen...
This paper investigates the view update problem for XML views published from relational data. We consider (possibly) recursively defined XML views, compressed into DAGs and stored...
